CBS drama MADAM SECRETARY is back for season three, with Eric Stoltz still directing, producing, and returning to the front of the camera as Elizabeth McCord's brother, Will Adams. More info on EW.com.

It's been a slow summer news-wise, with several projects we've already mentioned either still in development, or in pre- or post-production. One bit of update is that Eric Stoltz is now listed as one of the producers of "Confessions of a Teenage Jesus Jerk" as well as being the director, with a release date of this comedy listed as 2017. Read more on imdb.com here.

Besides that, Eric is still busy with season three of the CBS drama Madam Secretary, as seen in the occasional photo posted on Twitter. Here's one of him on set sporting a pair of "Team Lucy Meyer" sunglasses, designed by 10th grader Lucy Meyer, the official spokeperson for the Special Olympics-US Fund For UNICEF Partnership, and a Special Olympics athlete. Photo tweeted by Lucy Meyer @teamlucymeyer

Eric also tweeted a lovely photo of himself with some of the cast and crew of the show, and bestowing upon them a very nice compliment.

Then there is this great picture tweeted by Stunt man/actor R. Marcos Taylor, who gave me the go-ahead to share it. Enjoy!

For a little bit of MadSec fun, here's a funny gif Wallis Currie-Wood tweeted herself with Eric Stoltz and the cast members of the 'McCord family'.

Eric Stoltz has directed an indie comedy called "Confessions of a Teenage Jesus Jerk". This is a project that was a long time in the works and actually completed a while ago but is only now being officially announced. Don't know much else about it other than what's on IMDb. Actress Crystal Rivers tweeted this great photo of herself with Eric Stoltz, presumably on the set of the movie.

Eric Stoltz is still co-executive producing Madam Secretary and even had a surprise cameo appearance as Will Adams at the very end of episode 2x13 "Invasive Species", sharing some facetime with the McCord family. You can see a screencap from the scene on our Facebook page here.

Besides that, the only other things I have right now to share are a couple of pictures that have surfaced. Here's a zany Madam Secretary BTS photo tweeted by show writer/co-producer Alex Cooley.

We only had the opening scene together, but I would say that it was really cool that he came out to support Robert, who is he friends with. That he took the time to come be in Robert’s short film and was humble, and willing to be there… Totally committed to the moment.”You can read the full interview here (talentmonthly.com).

I've no idea how this happened, but huge apologies to our UK and African fans for the fact that I neglected to advise you that Blue, starring Julia Stiles and co-starring Eric Stoltz, is now airing on Lifetime TV at 10pm Monday nights. More info here (whoisblue.com). From what I understand (thanks Vanessa!) one of Eric's eps has already aired, so start tuning in now to catch the rest! More info here (todotvnews.com).

Shortly after the last update, actress Wallis Currie-Wood tweeted this interestingly backlit photo from the set of Madam Secretary (photo apps - what don't they do?).

Other projects Eric Stoltz is said to be involved with as an actor are in pre-production. No current news on Noble Savages, but according to co-producer/writer Matthew Modine in this interview (reellifewithjane.com) The Rocking Horsemen is set to begin filming this summer.

There's also a new entry on Slated - The Younger Bulls - which lists Eric as a director and producer.

And just because it was such an unexpected "Hey look - it's Eric!" moment, here's a picture of the restaurant décor where I was recently a patron. Memphis Belle makes a nice backdrop, no?

5 to 7, starring Anton Helchin, & Glenn Close, with Eric Stoltz, to be screened at the Miami Jewish Film Festival. More info here (miamijewishfilmfestival.net).

Unfortunately, I should've posted this sooner, because it's sold out and is a "rush line only" film. Meaning, you might be able to see it if there are any seats left just before it starts (completeticketsolutions.com).

There could be more, but recently I've stumbled upon two movies that are currently available on Amazon Instant Video. One is the classic Killing Zoe, starring Eric Stoltz, Jean-Hugues Anglade, and Julie Delpy. Click here.

The other is the more obscure 2005 short movie called Hello, starring Eric Stoltz and Susanna Thompson. Click here.

Also, a friend recently advised that she caught it streaming on Netflix. If you're a Netflix subscriber, check your listings.

Hope you've been enjoying Eric's directing on the CBS drama Madam Secretary, because it appears he's not done yet. Executive producer Lori McCreary tweeted these photos of him from the filming of episode 14; one with his back to us on the Bull and Bear bar set and another with writer/executive producer Barbara Hall.

Speaking of photos, Getty Images has some photos of him on the set of The Black Box. They don't seem to be tagged with his name, so here's links to each that I've found:

Not so much an update as a 'debriefing', I've gathered together all of the pics-n-things that came out this past week from the airing of Eric's latest two shows he directed. White Collar's "Ice Breaker" ep generated a ton of kudos, while Nashville's "Hanky Panky Woman" generated about two tons-worth, several pictures, and a live-tweeting episode during the show Wednesday night that I hope some of you were able to catch, watch, and/or participate in.

For those of you who missed the live-tweeting or who don't have Twitter, I gathered all the conversations together that I could find and created what reads like an interview of sorts. Great questions, great answers. You can see them on our Facebook page here, here, here, here and here.

The episode of White Collar directed by Eric Stoltz is 5x06, titled "Ice Breaker" and, if the current schedule continues, should air Thursday, November 21st". Here are some promo BTS photos, including one of Eric on the set (spoilertv.com).

Still waiting on word of when Blue season three premieres, in which Eric Stoltz will be guest-starring. Will let you know when I find out. In the meantime, here's a BTS photo of him on the set with Julia Stiles. (facebook.com)

Several more photos of Eric on the set of Nashville have been tweeted and posted on Facebook as well. No word on the title of that ep yet, but it's believed to be 2.08. From Micah Lorance here.From Tessa here. From the J. Pervis Talent Agency here.

Eric Stoltz is indeed directing an episode for season five of "White Collar" (info on imdb) a USA Network crime dramedy starring Matt Bomer and Tim DeKay. Some pics from the set were tweeted by an onlooker. You can see one of them here.

All of the first three issues of Back to Back to the Future - a comic book by David Guy Levy asking "what if Eric Stoltz had starred as Marty McFly" - are now available as PDF downloads. You can get them here (mammothnyc.com):

This was a rather funny week. While I was offline at home and not able to update the site, Abby kept sending rewritten posts with better links, new info, revised data and kept reminding me that I have to change the ‘5 to 7 (unknown)’ to ‘5 to 7 (actor)’. So, enjoy Abby’s latest collection of Eric Stoltz news:

Eric Stoltz is guest starring in the season finale of Maron, which airs on IFC as two back-to-back episodes at 10pm on Friday, June 28th. You can get the show here (ifc.com).

Looks like Eric is also getting some screen time in the romantic comedy "5 to 7". He's now listed on IMDb as playing a character named Galassi.

Jeff King, co-exec producer of the shows White Collar and Continuum, tweeted this photo of Eric Stoltz with TV writer Matt Whitney. He tagged it 'White Collar', but I have no additional info at the moment to confirm if that means Eric may be involved in an episode. We'll wait and see.

Here's a fun "what if" idea: what if someone wrote a comic book about the producers of Back to the Future going back in time and making sure Eric Stoltz starred as Marty McFly? And, what if the proceeds for selling such a comic book were donated to such a worthy cause as the Young Storytellers Foundation?

Check out this video, which explains how and why David Guy Levy did just that (vimeo.com).

Besides that, news is slow. So instead, here's some fun photos that made their way around Twitter recently. Melissa Errico posted two backstage pics (instagram.com) from The Importance of Being Earnest and this one (twitter.com) and a fan tossed out a nice BTS photo from when Eric was directing Grey's Anatomy (twitter.com).

Eric Stoltz has been busy directing more Nashville. According to this ABC press release, he directed episode 1x18 titled "Take These Chains from My Heart".

It airs Wednesday, May 1st. There was also mention of him on the set last week, so he may be working on a third ep as well.

Mini Gleeks posted some BTS pics from Glee "Guilty Pleasures, which includes one of Eric (mini-gleeks-la.tumblr.com).

And, actors Jessica Collins and Harry Shum Jr. recently tweeted old pics from the sets of Nip/Tuck and Glee.

No idea which ep yet, but according to Marc's tweet, it is one of the eps directed by Bobcat Goldthwait. The show premieres on IFC on Friday, May 3rd.

There's one sneak peek vid out for Eric's latest Glee ep, Guilty Pleasures. Watch for a very quick glimpse at the 0:47 mark, and in the background at the end (youtu.be short link).

And it seems Eric Stoltz is directing another episode of Nashville. Actor Todd Allen Durken mentioned working with him (read tweet) and highly praised him (second tweet). Love reading such kudos.

Also, got an update on that tweet about Eric on the set of Bounce. Sam Blankson, who tweeted that great photo of him there, says he was just visiting the set that day.

The computer gets no rest at the moment. Eric Stoltz related updates almost every day. Lucky us! So here the latest one, written once more by Abby:

Seems pretty confirmed that the episode of Glee Eric Stoltz just directed is ep 4x17. Glee Forums, which are usually pretty accurate, list the title as "Guilty Pleasures." It airs March 21st. More info here (gleeforum.com).

James LaRosa, a writer on a new TV drama called "Bounce", tweeted that Eric Stoltz was on the set. No details on what he may have been doing there. A gossip site I saw said he's starring in the show, but I hesitate to trust that info as it seems to be based only on this same vague tweet. Will wait to see if a more reliable source mentions it.

In the meantime, enjoy this great photo of Eric Stoltz tweeted the other day by Sam Blankson! (@sammyblanks)

Here's a great blog by Susan Dominus for the NY Times "The 6th Floor" column, about meeting Eric Stoltz on the set of Nashville, where he explains one of the reasons he enjoys directing. Click here (6thfloor.blogs.nytimes.com).

This NY Times article about Nashville star Connie Britton has a great little anecdote about Eric getting just the scene he wanted from her, and her thoughts about that. (Scroll down to the paragraph that begins "The next morning".)

Not new news, but fun things I found on YouTube this week.Eric Stoltz, Tate Donovan, and others from the cast of "The Lather Effect" appear in this June 4, 2008 episode of "Up Close With Carrie Keagan". This is a riot - don't miss it! Part 1Part 2

Also currently on YouTube is Eric's 1983 Fall Guy ep "One Hundred Miles a Gallon". I think it's been up before, but it's been a while and this vid is better quality.

This could be the last post here for a while, because the computer is about to break down and needs to be replaced (hdd is not starting without retrying at least 30 times), so a short reminder that our Facebook page Eric Stoltz fans united is always up-to-date.

Here the latest update from Abby:

Several additional photos of Eric Stoltz on the set of "Nashville" are up over at Getty Images. Go have a look!

Here's a nice short film "In Our Living and Our Dying: Our Town in the 21st Century". It includes a very recent interview with Eric Stoltz beginning at the 3:36 mark (youtube.com).

According to this ABC press release, the episode of "Nashville" that Eric Stoltz directed is 1x13, titled "There'll Be No Teardrops Tonight". It airs Wednesday, February 13th 10:00-11:00 p.m. ET.

Judith Hoag also tweeted this terrific photo of herself on the set with Eric Stoltz and Eric Close.

Also, caught wind of a rumor that Eric will be involved in a project called "Confessions of a Teenage Disciple", but I have no confirming information yet that I can post, so we'll keep the eyes and ears open on that one.
